One Year Later, Would You Still Be Interested?

Last year it seemed like once Steve Smith was released everyone, including myself, wanted Dave Gettleman to sign And bring home Hakeem Nicks. As we all know he went off to Indianapolis and didn't have a great season. Now a year later he is back on the market and I believe he could still be a good for the Panthers. He is still young and will be going into his year 27 season at the beginning of the year. He didn't have a great year so I believe he will come cheaply and possibly less than what he got last year. I know we need speed but this move wouldn't prevent us from taking someone in the draft and bringing back Ginn. Originally I was all aboard the Torrey Smith bandwagon, but after seeing what he rejected in Baltimore I am not holding my breath.

So a year later does Hakeem Nicks still interest you guys?

He's overated and has no serious upside or potential. For the vet min sure, but not what he's going to ask for.

I'd be perfectly happy to bring him here. Good player. Big game experience. I'm not too worried about cost because I'm confident DG won't overpay. I'd say he's worth a little more than vet min though. Him, Ginn, and a rookie, plus what we have. I'm more satisified with that than not.

He just seems like the typical Gettleman signing this year. Will draw very little interest and probably could be cheap. If you june 1st cut cotchery you save 1.5 million this year. I don't hate this offense

And that's with no rookies. Sprinkle in one or two and you've got yourself one of them there football teams as the kids say.

      Nobody likes moral victories, but...

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      I don't really like the phrase, "moral victory". I get what's meant by it, but does that mean that if you do the opposite (play poorly but win) it's an immoral victory? 🤔

      Team is looking good for next season

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      I blame Evero because he is overrated. Vance Joseph created the defense in Denver that he took credit for. Wilks ran the ball down his throat and Darnold had a 103.8 rtg.  Last year we were decent in yards allowed, and horrible in everything else. Only reason? We kept giving up good field position.  He's had his choice of players to bring in since his scheme is so "complicated." Maybe he should stop trying to be so fancy like running Cover 4 on 3rd and 1 earlier and focus on fundamentals like tackling. These years of Eric Washington, Phil Snow, and Evero must have gotten you confused on what a real defense looked like. Go back and watch the McDermott and Wilks years- this dude is sofT.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      I tried to make it a point in the opening post that I don't think the offense is a finished product. I think we still need more talent at WR, better play calling, catch more consistently, elimate ridiculous penalties,  and be more consistency in scoring points. I'm just saying, they look markedly better than last year imo. They have scored 20 or more in 6 games and 30 or more in 2 games. And that's particularly notable considering they only mustered 10 points and 3 points in first 2 games of this year and they got blanked on 0 points two games in a row to wrap up last season . I'd say that's a market improvement.  I'm not crowning them and saying we have a top 10 offense or anything.  I'm comparing them to themselves in recent history.
